fuckyeahginatorres:

When I became an actress I quickly realize that the world liked their latinos to look Italian. Not like me. So I wasn’t going up for Latina parts. I was going up for African American parts. […]

Regardless of the fact that I spoke the language better and understood the culture better, those [stereotypical latina] weren’t the parts that…I could take seriously. Suddenly you have to explain why I look how I look. And then it gets complicated. And nobody wants complicated.

““I remember women by what we ate together, what they dug out of the freezer after we’d made love for hours. I’ve only had one lover who didn’t want to eat at all. We didn’t last long. The sex was good but I couldn’t think what to do with her when the sex was finished. We drink spring water, and fight a lot.””

- Dorothy Allison, “A Lesbian Appetite”

“We don’t mean to offend you by calling you racist.”

Two slam poets with Brave New Voices deliver this fearless indictment of hipster cultural appropriation and all its collateral damage.

DEAR WHITE HIPSTERS AND OTHER WHITE PEOPLE OF TUMBLR, CLICK PLAY AND LISTEN CLOSELY.
Lol seriously though why does this not have more notes?! I can’t even pick my favorite part. It’s amazing, and flawless, and just… yes.

“Acting like you’re down because you say “fuck the system,” but in the same breathe are quick to gentrify the hell out of my hood.”

“Is that racist? Yes, that is. And we don’t mean to offend you by calling you racist; we know that according to you, we’re all part of the universe. But you have a tendency to treat animals better than humans.”

“We don’t need to hear your feelings about our issues. “To be fair, as a white person—-” “Nononono, shut the FUCK up.””

This is the greatest thing ever.

I fucking love Kai Davis! who is the other girl? I want to love her too!

Aww seriously guys you have got to watch this shit it is AMAZING

Fair play to these two; beautifully observed, especially the bit about ‘mythical African children’ and ‘ivory saviours who think Africa is a country’. Wanted to shake hands with both of them right there.

thank realness for people like this. i love my friends.

this is rad. what was it made for?

and to add: for me, queer means ending classism and ableism (in addition to the above) as well.

autohistoriamestiza:

latimes:

Artist pays homage to L.A.’s unseen workers: Ramiro Gomez’s cardboard cutouts of nannies, gardeners, valets and housekeepers have appeared, in silent tribute, around the wealthy districts of the city.

Most pieces last a day or two if Gomez is lucky. Once, a valet parker he planted outside a lot near the Sunset Strip made it four days.

Gomez writes his contact information on the back of each piece so people can tell him where the art ended up. So far, no one has reached out.

At first it was tough to let go. He’d stand by for a while to see people’s reactions, then take the cutout down and lug it back home.

But then Gomez realized it was not his place to keep public art out of view.

So he learned to walk away.

Why I ain't got time for white gays and gay marriage

Sat, 04 Aug 2012 18:11:44 -0400

howtobeterrell:

Marriage is about the transfer of wealth and power. Plain and simple.

For simple ass middle class folks and below it looks like love and offspring but in truthfor the elite marriage is about you guessed it maintaining power and wealth!

If your gay rights agenda include finding shelter for queer youth of color, jobs or education

Then

I ain’t about your agenda
